She was sweetly wrapped up in a patterned baby grow and a knitted blanket as she slept peacefully while holding the attacking midfielder’s finger.

The day after Sasha had given birth, Jack missed his sides clash against Newcastle at St James Park where the side drew 1-1. 

The attacker also sat out of Manchester City’s Champion League game last week against Slovan Bratislava where the blues won 4-0.

Jack has since returned to the field to helped his Manchester City side score victory against Fulham at the Etihad over the weekend. 

Fans and the couple’s celebrity friends rushed to their Instagram post to congratulate them as they became a family of three. 

Jordan Pickford’s partner Megan penned: ‘Perfection love you so much already Mila Rose. Auntie Megs can’t wait to buy you frilly socks and tutus xxx’. 

Danielle Lloyd wrote: ‘Congratulations to you both’, while Love Island stars Tasha Ghouri and Zara McDermott added: ‘Huge congratulations’.

Sasha and England star Jack have been together since they were both 16.

For the Instagram announcement of Sasha’s pregnancy, Jack shared a photo of himself holding Sasha’s growing baby bump.

‘Life’s biggest blessing,’ the England footballer captioned the post, while Sasha wrote: ‘Half of me, half of you – beyond blessed.’

It comes after Sasha revealed, while she was seven months pregnant, that she struggled with finding clothing that fit as she showed off her baby bump in a series of snaps.

Sasha said in a video that while she loves her bump, it has made finding the perfect outfit more difficult.

She explained how everyday outfits like ‘sweats and comfies’ aren’t suitable for all occasions, especially when heading out to a celebratory dinner. 

Another challenge for Sasha is footwear – reflecting on how she had previously managed with sandals during the summer months, Sasha admitted: ‘It’s not summer now.’

This is the latest milestone for the couple who have been together for 12 years with the model supporting the footballer throughout his career.

Her own career has flourished and Sasha has taken part in campaigns for brands including L’Oreal, House of Fraser, Boohoo, and, of course, PrettyLittleThing.

The couple have had even more quality time together after a difficult season for Jack in which he suffered several injuries before missing out on the England squad for Euro 2024.

But, Sasha proudly gushed over Jack following Manchester City’s Premier League win in May as she shared a loved-up snap.

And, happily, Jack was officially reinstated into the England squad in August.

Back in December, the Manchester City star’s £5.6million mansion was hit by thieves who left his property with an estimated £1m in jewellery and watches while he was away at Everton on playing duty.

His long-term partner Sasha was at home with 10 family members when the break-in occurred, and quickly raised the alarm at the property. 

A massive search was initiated involving helicopters and dogs, and according to reports, the burglary gang attempted to raid the mansion one month before the attack but were scared off when they spotted a police car nearby.

Since a source told the Sun that Jack is still ‘on edge’ about the situation, with police still yet to make any arrests seven months on. 

‘Jack fears they will never be caught,’ they said.

‘This left him absolutely distraught — it impacted him and his family badly.

‘Seven months on and no arrests have been made. Police say they are still investigating it, but there’s a real fear they have fled the country.

‘Jack is worried they’ll never be caught and will do it again.’

Jack was informed about the raid by City’s head of player support and protocol Manel Estiarte after the final whistle of City’s 3-1 Goodison Park victory on Boxing Day.

Concern was etched on the player’s face as he rushed down the tunnel to the dressing room.

Speaking on the matter for the first time after the match, City manager Guardiola said: ‘The family was inside, it is what it is today, modern days, with many things happening.

Jack wrote on Instagram after the event: ‘I can’t begin to explain how devastated I am over the burglary that took place at my home. My family means the world to me and nothing is more important than ensuring their safety’ 

‘It was a bad moment for him and his family but fortunately the family was not damaged [harmed].’ 

His home in Cheshire lies in an affluent area that is thought to have been targeted by a number of professional burglary gangs from Brazil, Mexico, Peru and Chile, according to the Sun.  

Jack is not the only Premier League footballer to have been targeted by raids, with Joelinton, Victor Lindelof and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang all suffering similar ordeals in recent years. 

‘I can’t begin to explain how devastated I am over the burglary that took place at my home,’ Jack wrote on Instagram after the event.

‘My family means the world to me and nothing is more important than ensuring their safety.

‘This has been a traumatic experience for all of us, I am just so grateful that nobody was hurt.’
